Anything like funny games?
 
Hey guys, not sure if this is the place to post this but was wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction. I seen funny games about a year ago from a recommendation from this site and completely loved it, but havnt been able to find anything nearly as good since. Im a big fan of the home invasion type movie, iv seen ,them,the strangers, inside, high tension..... all very very good. Any im missing out on?

Cheers guys

:)

i would take a look at Frontiers (2007), Them AKA Ils (2007), Wolf Creek (2005) and maybe Eden Lake (2008). Not all are home invasion flix but they are brutal and edgy. Ashe.

Hey Elvis, no I havnt, I watched trailers of his other stuff and have never been compelled to watch any of them...

Oh and I know its a stupid thing to say but im kinda looking for stuff more recent, post 1990.

Thanks psycho, i have seen all of them (HATE eden lake) except for frontiers il check it out for sure, ils was brilliant.

Any more guys?

There was a home invasion scene in Henry. Just like 3-5 minutes though.
The first half of From Dusk Til Dawn was a home invasion movie for redneck that live in campers.:D


Youve probley seen those though.



Im no help:o

Michael Myers 09-28-2009 07:00 PM

Ha, thanks for the effort clockwork :)

It doesnt have to be strictly home invasion, just anything as good as funny games ;)

BTW The Desperate Hours (a Bogart film from the 50's) is the archetype for the home invasion film. Great flick too - A remake was do in the 90's with Mickey Rouke as the bad guy (as I remember this wasn't so great..

Elvis_Christ 09-29-2009 12:38 AM

^^ I really liked the remake to be honest.

I don't really get why someone would bother only watching post-90s films. The majority are lightweight and lack the grit/sleaze that makes shit like "home invasion" flicks really work and get under your skin.

I wasn't too huge a fan of this. The family went through entirely too much torture, and the pay-off at the end wasn't nearly satisfying enough.

Timber Falls (2007) might also fit the bill. Ashe.
